Geometry Unit 2: Reasons to Use in Proofs

These activities only include Unit 2 properties, definitions, postulates and theorems. You may select either MATCHING or FLASH CARDS.

Matching: Match the proper name of the reason to its description. Play a few times because not all reasons can fit within one round. There are 21 reasons total for this unit.

Flash cards: Click a reason card to reveal the description. Click the right and left arrows to flip through the reasons.

AB
Addition Property of Equality (APOE)A quantity is added to both sides of an equation.
Subtraction Property of Equality (SPOE)A quantity is subtracted from both sides of an equation.
Multiplication Property of Equality (MPOE)Multiply by a quantity on both sides of an equation.
Division Property of Equality (DPOE)Divide by a quantity on both sides of an equation.
Reflexive PropertyOne Line: a = a
Symmetric PropertyTwo Lines: If a = b then b = a
Transitive PropertyThree lines: If a = b and b = c then a = c
Definition of congruenceTwo quantities are equal in length if and only if they are congruent.
Definition of complementary anglesTwo angles add up to 90 degrees.
Definition of supplementary anglesTwo angles add up to 180 degrees.
Definition of midpointA point that is the exact middle of a segment.
Definition of vertical anglesTwo non-adjacent angles formed when two lines intersect.
Definition of right angleAn angle that measures 90 degrees.
Definition of bisectorA geometric figure that splits another figure into two equal (congruent) parts.
Segment Addition PostulateParts of a segment add up to the whole segment length.
Angle Addition PostulateParts of an angle add up to the whole angle measure.
Linear Pair Postulate (LPP)If two angles form a linear pair, then they are supplementary.
Vertical Angle TheoremIf two angles are vertical, then they are congruent.
Right Angle Congruence TheoremAll right angles are congruent.
Congruent Complements TheoremIf ∠1 is complementary to ∠2 and ∠2 is complementary to ∠3, then ∠1 and ∠3 are congruent.
Congruent Supplements TheoremIf ∠1 is supplementary to ∠2 and ∠2 is supplementary to ∠3, then ∠1 and ∠3 are congruent.
